Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Makorus]

I didn't know that good communication means "Oh yeah, they need a huge blogpost every week".

What company does that lol?

[Eurhetemec]

I would argue that way of writting dates makes absolutely no sense save for an anglo-saxon. The rest of the world wrte them like normal people, either from long to short (year/month/day) or from short to long (day/month/year)

British people, who have a much higher proportion of Anglo-Saxons than Americans, write it day/month/year and always have.

This is not an "Anglo-Saxon" thing. This is an United States of America thing.

Some people really need to calm their tits and find some hobby besides WoW. It's not world-ending and no foreshadowing of the end of WoW if we don't get tangible news for some weeks. Geez.

I mean, you're posting this in a thread specifically about anticipating, guessing, prognosticating and so on, on an obscure messageboard full of the sort of people who really like anticipating, guessing, and prognosticating about WoW.

That's a lot like going to down to a local amateur football team and yelling at them that they need to "get a hobby which isn't soccer!" or something.

Btw I love your icon and respect for using "calm your tits" correctly.

It's one thing to speculate. Obsession is another.

Do other people's feelings harm you?

Do other people's feelings harm you?

Not sure what this constant back and forth about if blizzard gives us enough info or not has to do with feelings, but ok.
It's a tremendous waste of internet space, energy and carbondioxide.

We will get more info sooner or later.

[Aeluron Lightsong]

Do other people's feelings harm you?

Thats not what this is about so cool it. Obesssing over it daily isn't helpful or healthy. Info will come, I check this thread daily but I don't worry too much if its not moving. I go do something else.

[Dracullus]

Do other people's feelings harm you?

This is whole issue of last few pages, you tell a lot about your feelings and don't care at all about facts.

They always say they wanna do heritage armor when the story allows it, and 9.2.5 really seems to be a great time to do undead/night elf heritage armors. If we don't get that or an allied race, I will be sad.

Well we do get heritage part 2 for Dark Iron and Blood Elves - so it would be weird to encrypt it if we would also get part one for NE and UD.

Pretty sure Blizzard never specified any month. However your account date should mean you have enough experience with Blizzard to know that delays and things happen. Just relax.

At this rate Dragonflight will be out by 2024

That refered to Arclight Rumble though.

That specifically says "Warcraft". He talked about arclight rumble.

What hasn't happened based on that tweet? We got Dragonflight news in April and Arclight Rumble in May. Like i said though delays happen. It has happened in the past with Blizzard and it will happen in the future. The reason why they have become tight lipped over the years when discussing in-development content is because of how the community reacts when things change or don't happen as fast as they want.

It's disappointing May has been mostly a dull month for WoW but I think it's a tad too early to think DF is dead on arrival because of it. At worst things have been delayed a few weeks.

One thing I'd like with the profession revamp is a sort of "Gathering Log" like from FF14. It shows where to find certain herbs/ore/fish (once you've found it once) and includes a small flavor text about the type of material. Lots of cool potential for WoW's fauna to get expanded on with that.

I really enjoyed the small questlines in BfA that had you learn what the relevant reagents were used for, like the Seastalk which had magical properties and was therefore used as a sort of pseudo messaging system for those lost at sea.
Was a shame when SL just didnt have any of that. Guess it came with the removal of resource gathering ranks, but still.

I think with the lack of world building in general.

This is not an "Anglo-Saxon" thing. This is an United States of America thing.

I stand corrected. I was curious and I searched the "why":

The United States is one of the few countries that use “mm-dd-yyyy” as their date format–which is very very unique! The day is written first and the year last in most countries (dd-mm-yyyy) and some nations, such as Iran, Korea, and China, write the year first and the day last (yyyy-mm-dd). But why did Americans choose to write the month first? One of the hypotheses is that the United States borrowed the way it was written from the United Kingdom who used it before the 20th century and then later changed it to match Europe (dd-mm-yyyy). American colonists liked their original format and it’s been that way ever since.
